France manager Didier Deschamps has attracted eyebrows on him after he left out captain Kylian Mabppe out of the squad for the UEFA Nations League matches against Israel and Belgium. Deschamps denied that there was any animosity between him and Mbappe even though he did not choose to play Mbappe, one of their country's best players, in the UEFA tournament.

And the fact that Mbappe was spotted in a Swedish nightclub on the same night as France squared off against Israel. The reason for Mbappe's exclusion is to give enough time to recover from injury to the French star. However, instead of rehab and recovery, Mbappe was seen in the nightclub. Deschamps, however, said that he is not aware that Mbappe is in Sweden.

"I don’t follow the news of players who are not here, Kylian is following a programme with Real Madrid, I don’t know if he was away or not. Like any player for his club, he follows a programme. If players have days off, they are free to do what they want," Deschamps said as quoted in a report by Goal.
